Information for patients

You are encouraged to bring your mobile phone with you and to leave it on, as we may use it to contact you about your appointment. Please be considerate of others when using your phone and please set your phone to silent mode when receiving treatment.

No smoking policy

Smoking is not permitted in any of our hospitals, grounds or hospital transport.

The use of e-cigarettes and the charging of them is also not permitted within the hospitals, grounds, or hospital transport and they are known fire and safety hazards. More information on the risks associated with the use and charging of e-cigarettes, particularly when also using oxygen as part of your treatment can be provided by nursing staff.

Please do not eat or drink before your appointment if you have been asked not to as this may result in us having to cancel your appointment. If you are not sure if you can eat or drink, please call the clinic and check.
